Bodega - Official Affiliate Thread

Bodega (shop.bdgastore.com), recently named by GQ as one of the 25 best men’s stores in America, is a premier provider of sneakers and high-end menswear. Located at 6 Clearway Street in Boston’s Back Bay, Bodega was founded in 2006 by Jay, Oliver and Dan, three friends who wanted to create an accessible outlet for art and design. Since its inception, Bodega has quickly gained a global following for its exclusive stocking of limited edition sneakers and quality goods. 

Known for hosting an elegant shop hidden behind a fully functioning convenience store, Bodega carries brands that are renown for their well-crafted pieces as well as their attention to innovative design. Bodega also carries its own in-store line, sold exclusively at Bodega, that is predicated on the store’s philosophy of making a first-rate product while not taking oneself too seriously.

Through Styleforum, we hope to share with our followers some insight into store happenings, whether it is a footwear collaboration or an in-store event. So no matter where you are in the world, you can still support your local Bodega.

The Loafer Wash is a simple slip-on that uses a weathered navy leather and suede across the upper which is bound to a textured off-white sole.  The rawhide laces provide a contrast, extending through eyelets toward the silhouette's rear and comfort is added by way of the soft leather sock-liner. Made in Italy.

Mark McNairy New Amsterdam x Bodega

Featuring two pairs of Mark’s traditional Long Wings and a pair of the newly introduced Wing Saddle silhouette, this project resulted from a single meeting between our Leo Pagkaliwangan and Mr. McNairy himself. At Capsule Las Vegas 2011, the two were able to sit down to discuss the collaboration. Born from the combination of their creative minds, the end products truly bring out the tones and imagery of the quintessential Bodega aesthetic. Read more about this project here.
